Magic. Get your wants list up. I'll bet it's interesting reading. Are your interests Hibs only or wider?

Wants are basically anything I've not got! Exclusively Hibs cards or cards with a Hibs connection up to 1980.

Mental. I went high but no where near the end price. More serious collectors than me me thinks!

Kinda in the same place as you. EBay generates the odd gem but competition for the rarer cards is pretty fierce.

Have you tried Garry Danes who produces the FCCM? He has a few rare ones that I can't afford yet! ;(

I'm also in the same boat with cards. All the ones I now bid on end up going for silly money.

Out of interest, has anyone ever seen a Pinnace Team Group for Hibs? I've heard it exists but never seen it.

The following site seems to have a photo of every known Pinnace card...

Special Hibby cards.

Are you aware that there are "bubble-gum" sized trading cards for all three Hibs League Cup winning teams, 1972, 1991 and 2007, all done in a very limited edition of 100 sets each? Most of these would probably be gone.
More recently there is now the same for our glorious SC win last year, done in a limited edition of 250 sets?

They were drawn by a Hibby artist called Splodge.

I've subscribed to FCCM since issue #1 and have kept all the magazines as a reference guide.

If I could have one card only it would be the Phillips Pinnace team group. Fun and games if it ever appears on ebay

Sounds like your collection is pretty decent. Would love to see it and compare
